AbstractWe present a patient with a facial movement disorder that has characteristics of both blepharospasm and bilateral asynchronous hemifacial spasm. Because of the increased incidence of blepharospasm in patients with hemifacial spasm, our patient's clinical presentation is probably not a chance occurrence, but rather a manifestation of some ...

"Trick" movements in facial dystonia.
The Journal of clinical psychiatry, 1985Two patients with facial dystonia (blepharospasm and/or oromandibular dystonia) presented with an unusual "trick" movement. Both patients were able to inhibit blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonia by vocalizations including singing, reading, and speaking spontaneously. The significance of "trick" movements in facial dystonia is discussed.

[Supranuclear progressive paralysis (or oculo-facial-cervical dystonia)].
Schweizer Archiv fur Neurologie, Neurochirurgie und Psychiatrie = Archives suisses de neurologie, neurochirurgie et de psychiatrie, 1975The authors describe 14 personal cases of progressive supranuclear palsy, 8 of them including a neuropathological study. The analysis of this material confirms the characteristics of this nosological entity, which is now well individualized amongst the apparently idiopathic degnerative diseases of the CNS.
